Considering I get spacers and stuff.

Also are these wider than the stock phone dials? (sorry for the super rook Q's)

Thnks

well they are 8.5" all around, it would probably be possible but... actually I have no clue about the offsets of the wheels. All in all most of us on this board prefer to run a staggered wheel setup. But someone else comment...

Edit: yes the fronts would be wider, the rears would not!

yeah they'd work just need some spacers 52mm-23mm=29mm so you'd need approx a 30mm spacer.

I have nice set of 17x7.5 and 17x9 C2turbo wheels with tires in the proper offsets for a 1986 944 turbo...
Let me know and I'll send you some pics.
